We celebrated my dad's 71st birthday today just hanging out and playing a bunch of card games like Wizard, Phase 10 and my parents current favorite game, Pegs and Jokers. BTW, P&J is a great game.
Games started around noon time, we had a ton of good snacks and beers were consumed before we eventually moved out to the backyard and just hung out by the campfire with cocktails.
I was tasked with cooking the prime rib which my mother picked up on Thursday. Simple rub of kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, 3 hours @ 350 on the 18" WSM, rested for 30 minutes afterwards. Probably one of the best prime ribs I've done. We had a group of 8 for dinner and there was still a ton left over, but I figured there would be with a 6 rib, 11+lb cut of beef. The ribs will be turned into some awesome beef stock which will probably make it's way into a great beef stew sometime this winter. The leftover beef will be consumed as well, maybe for football sandwiches tomorrow...
